Lil Dicky appeared on The Ellen Show and spoke about his new single and video, “I’m putting this song out tonight called ‘Earth.’ And it’s literally got 30 of the biggest artists in the world on it. And every artist plays a different animal. Like, Justin Bieber’s a baboon. Ariana Grande’s a zebra. Ed Sheeran’s a koala bear, and [I] did that 30 times over. It’s all about, like, saving the Earth.” Lil Dicky adds, “There’s an environmental crisis going on right now. We have 12 years to completely change the way we do so many things on Earth or the damage is irreversible.” Within our lifetime, well within our lifetime, like, crazy things are gonna happen. Floods. Food shortages. Bad air. Like, very soon.”

According to US Weekly, “Lil Dicky also pledged to have The Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, which supports projects around the world that help the environment and its wildlife, aid him in determining the best channel through which to donate the video’s proceeds. Leo DiCaprio tweeted, “Thank you to Lil Dicky and all the artists that came together to make this happen. Net profits from the song, video and merchandise will go to many @dicapriofdn profits on the frontlines of implementing solutions to climate change.”
